My name is Joshua Rolle, and I'm a 17-year-old college student attempting to raise money so that I can continue my studies and escape my abusive family.

I am a Bio major, about to finish my first year studying in Canada. For my own safety, I cannot be more specific. My family is deeply conservative and has kicked me out of my home multiple times due to our differences in ideology. This is partly due to my neurodivergency (I am diagnosed Autistic). Not only have I been kicked out of my home many times, but I have also been physically and emotionally abused by them. I have attempted to go to the police because of this, but I have been told that I should be lucky to have a Mother, regardless of how abusive she is.

Furthermore, I am queer (transmasc bisexual), which is why I cannot be more specific as to my location. If my family finds out that I'm queer, I will lose what little safety I have. I wish to become a Psychiatrist, so that I can assist BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Person of Color) adolescents and children like me.

The money that I am raising is for my tuition, residency, and medical bills. I plan on getting a job to further finance my education, and I thank you for your assistance in this matter.
